LOL, not quite. AK47's are the weapon of the enemy. We use AR15's and M-16's. Also, most of us have upgraded to the M1A2 for family use.
Or 350 pound mountain gorillas. After all, it’s your God-given right as an American to have the freedom to own a gorilla to protect yourself and your family.
Yeah, because having the browser display the page locally is just exactly the same as having a remote server decrypt your connection as a man in the middle.
Is this your first time using a web browser on a mobile device?
Data has been being received, rendered and compressed by remote servers for years. Opera billed it as a major feature of their browser in 2005, but even then it was nothing new.
You would think that a packet specifying X seconds of simulated silence could be packed into a few bits, so maybe two bytes should suffice.
Were you planning on sending that "two seconds of silence" packet at the _start_ of the pause? If so I know a few theoretical physicists and at least one state lottery commission who would _love_ to see your algorithm.

Good to hear that you're not having any problems. I have, and gave up on trying to fix them all the hard way and went back to using another distribution. It's not about hate and my response was to work with the mailing lists and bug databases, not to register ubuntusucks.org and fill it with over 100,000 examples of things that Ubuntu does wrong. (Mark Shuttleworth did that himself a while ago.)
It's not about a window manager that I don't like, as that was easily changed, it's about sleep and hibernate being either unavailable or unreliable, Wine windows disappearing into the aether, and total system lockups. All this on hardware that used to run perfectly on the old LTS release, 10.04.
It's popular to do so, I realize, but in my mind a lot of the hate is based less in realism and more in ideological/social groupthink. (This doesn't fit my ideology 100% so rah rah rah.. destroy it!. My friends don't think this is cool so i mustn't admit to liking it either!)
Linux users suffer from an unfortunate stereotype of being dismissive of others' problems when they are not personally affected by them. Arguing that stability issues are imaginary and most likely caused by the user being a trendy hipster does little to counter this.
how do i set things up so that %User% is treated as being the same as Root
Perhaps you could run Windows 95.
Sudoers just controls who can use SU
Or you could read the man pages for sudo and su, which are two different commands.
I understand that it can be annoying to have to authenticate to do administrative actions, but understanding how things like sudo or fstab work will solve most of the problems you described, while logging in and running everything as root can create problems you didn't even know existed.
Ubuntu is too popular to be cool here. As soon as something becomes popular, it ceases to be cool.
More importantly, it ceases to do power management properly, stops displaying borders and menus on X windows, and suffers from mysterious slowdowns and needs to reboot every week or so when previous versions had handled all of those things properly right out of the box. That has nothing to do with being popular.
Yeah yeah, unity sucks balls bla bla bla... but you don't have to use that window manager.
And you don't have to use that derivative of Debian either. There are plenty of alternatives, which is really the whole point.
You could also measure it in hours, but you would need 10,500 of them. How about 31,264 microfortnights? Does changing the units you measure time in somehow make it less significant?

Well, NASA hasn't said a word about this and they usually blab on and on about projects that won't even start for decades. But The Australian and India Times both reported that the Daily Fail wrote an article about it, so that's confirmation from three sources, right?

That'll never happen. You're too close; we'll just annex you ;-)
It's too late for that. Just look at how many Tim Horton's have popped up inside what used to be the north-eastern USA.
Canada has been annexing the USA bit by bit for years, and the only weapons they needed to do it were Tim-bits and the fearsome Double-Double.
Except you're not allowed to call it "Canada" any more. It's just "Harper" nowadays.

I thought hammers have been known for centuries, how did they manage a patent on that?
The same way you patent anything else, by adding the words "over the Internet" to its description.
But... but... Javascript is used all over the Web. You'd break almost everything if you uninstalled Java!
I see. Have you tried turning it off and on again?
Is it definitely plugged in?
That could be fun...
Your toilet/urinal flush mechanism works... just for a different toilet urinal!
Rumour has it that Peter Molydeux is working on a project based on this idea.

Read 1984, by George Orwell. That gives a hint.
Is there now a Disney ride called "Room 101" complete with animatronic rats?
Exactly what I was thinking.

All Los Alamos staff have been ordered to change the combination on their safe if Dr. Feynman has been seen in their office.
What do you recommend for people who use public transit instead of driving to work?

I see that you work for the Muni.
If you're playing "My logical fallacy is bigger than yours", then you've won hands down.

we can manage to survive up there for quite a long time
Measured in days.
Valery Polyakov measured 437 of them in a row..

You may want to look up what the "O" in H2O means.
Oxygen means either the oxygen atom or the O2 molecule.
No, really. You do want to look up what the "O" in H2O means.
We didn't "give it up"; alchemy continuously transitioned into modern chemistry.
For an example of this, try visiting the Chemistry department at the U of T some time.

The FAA has a distinctly different reputation, M.O., and set of priorities then, say, the FCC.
Is there an FBB which is somewhere in between the two?
Are allowed to use iPads in all phases of flight, but if I read a book on mine... It's trouble.
Pilots are also allowed to flip any switch they like in the cockpit, but for some reason they don't let the passengers do the same thing.
You mean there are infinitely many seats on an airplane?
Of course there are. Just keep booking as many paying passengers as you can, and if too many show up just bump them to the next flight.
Hasn't it always worked that way?
Well, NASA hasn't said a word about this and they usually blab on and on about projects that won't even start for decades. But The Australian and India Times both reported that the Daily Fail wrote an article about it, so that's confirmation from three sources, right?
If Milhouse says it too, then it must be true.
